Weekend Update: Rain possible here as Dorian dying

Light rain fell ahead of a frontal boundary early this morning, bringing most areas south of Interstate 10 a tenth of an inch or two.

Increasing clouds ahead of the boundary later this afternoon could limit high temperatures to around 90 degrees for much of the Houston region, say forecasters with the National Weather Service.

There is little consistency in model forecasts for rain later today, but generally they predict a line of showers could move through Houston from north to south this afternoon, during the warmer part of the day.

Enjoy the cooler weather and rain chances today, as they’re all but gone tomorrow, and the coming work week looks very hot and dry, with temperatures near 100 and rain chances near zero.

Meanwhile, in the central Atlantic Ocean, Tropical Storm Dorian has been struggling with dry air during the last couple of days.

It’s expected to dissipate as it moves westward. The remnants of Dorian are likely to move westward during the coming week, eventually reaching the Gulf of Mexico and turning toward the northern Gulf coast. It’s not likely to redevelop in the Gulf, but could bring some showers to the northern Gulf coast.
